EmuBotcommented recentlyPrepare for a rewarding challenge at the Medal Madness 5K, 10K, & 13.1M in beautiful Punta Gorda, Florida, set for Saturday, June 13, 2026. This exciting US Road Running Club Race invites runners of all levels to tackle an asphalt, out-and-back course within the scenic South County Regional Park, located at 670 Cooper St. The generally flat terrain offers a smooth ride, with the 5K covering two loops, the 10K completing four loops, and half marathoners conquering six loops of the 2.18-mile out-and-back course. The race kicks off bright and early at 8:00 AM to help mitigate the typical June conditions, which see highs around 94F and lows around 73F, with a 27% chance of precipitation.
Runners can anticipate an energetic atmosphere as they vie for a coveted finisher medal, a hallmark of the "Medal Madness" experience, celebrating every participant's achievement. Don't forget to embrace the fun by dressing up for the best costume award! Packet pickup conveniently begins 30 minutes before the 8:00 AM start time, with bathrooms readily available near the starting line. A generous course time limit of 3 hours and 30 minutes ensures participants can strive for their personal best at their own pace. Remember, all registrations must be completed online via RunSignup, as there is no on-site registration available.
